The Southwestern Wayne Democratic Club is announcing that Congresswoman Debbie Dingell will be the special guest at their annual chili cook-off event.
Date: Wednesday, April 24, 2019 from 6 to 8 p.m.
- Place: Wayne County Fairgrounds, 10871 Quirk, Van Buren Township, MI 48111
- Venue: Family friendly event, most tickets $10 (discounts for kids and seniors)
- Food: Chili, hot dogs, mac and cheese and dessert
The club expects to be joined by local leaders, State Senator Erika Geiss, (a fierce competitor) and several state representatives, including Darrin Camilleri (former two-time chili cook-off champion) and Kristy Pagan (known for her delicious veggie chili). We are proud to provide a platform for the community to connect with their neighbors and representatives.
WARNING: Keep an eye out as the other elected officials try and rip the medal off Rep. Camilleri’s neck. They are tired of him wearing his medallion on the house floor and mentioning his “award winning chili” at committee meetings. Our Corresponding Secretary, Debbie Chamberlain, will be trying to retrieve the title back from Trustee Barry Robinson who took the trophy for overall chili cook-off winner last year.
Please join us for a fun and kid friendly evening! You can contact any Executive Board Member, David Haener or Terree O’Neil Darling on Facebook or terree22@gmail.com for tickets or join us at the door!
